About Chrysalis

A Chrysalis weekend is an experience of
Christian spiritual renewal and formation that begins with a three-day
short course in Christianity. It is an opportunity to meet Jesus Christ
in a new way as God’s grace and love is revealed to you through other
believers.

The Chrysalis experience begins with the prayerful discernment and
invitation from a sponsor. After one accepts this invitation they
complete an application. The Chrysalis leaders prayerfully consider
each applicant and in God’s time, the person is invited to attend a
three-day experience of New Testament Christianity as a lifestyle.

Following the three-day experience, participants are joined in small groups to support each other in their ongoing walk with Christ.

Through the
formational process of accountable discipleship in small groups and
participation in the Chrysalis community, each participant’s individual
gifts and servant-leadership skills are developed for use in the local
church and its mission. Participants are encouraged to find ways to
live out their individual call to discipleship in their home, church,
and community.

The objective of Chrysalis is to inspire, challenge, and equip the
local church members for Christian action in their homes, churches,
communities and places of work. Chrysalis lifts up a way for our
grace-filled lives to be lived and shared with others.

What happens on the Chrysalis Weekend?

You will enjoy three days of singing, learning, laughing,
worshiping, reflecting, praying and participating in small groups.
Discussions center around fifteen talks given by youth and adult laity
and clergy. These talks present the theme of God’s grace, how that
grace comes alive in the Christian community and how it is expressed in
the world. You’ll also discover how grace is real in your life, how you
live a life of grace, and how you bring that grace to others.

In addition, you will also have the opportunity to participate in the daily
celebration of Holy Communion and to understand more fully the body of
Christ. You will experience God’s grace through the prayers and acts of
anonymous service offered by the Chrysalis community. You will leave
with an experience of Christian love in action that will equip you for
new levels of grace-filled service and leadership.
